To all our friends and family:
What a beautiful day it was! After long anticipating all morning the ultrasound that we have been waiting months for, Kristin and I attended the ultrasound starting at around 2:15. It was quite the awesome sight! The baby, yes, JUST ONE, thank goodness in more ways than one, but the baby, was VERY active! The doctors were making jokes about how active the baby was and how everytime they were about to get a perfect shot of the baby's body parts, the baby would move. What a sweet angel we have though. Moving and kicking and doing complete somersaults right before our eyes. Starting in the breech position, the baby became trasnverse across my abdomen and soon turned completely upside down and back again! How fun it was to see the baby moving in so many ways. The baby did a number of cute things from opening it's mouth to turning all around, kicking, punching, jumping, and most of all, it LOVES to suck a thumb! Fortunately, we were able to catch the baby in a couple of very cute photos that I have posted here as well. Baby's first photos and what sweet ones they are. Because the child is so young still, the face is what they called "alien face" because the soft tissue is not visible at all and the eye sockets and mouth are dark. A face only a mother could love, and I do love it dearly. Also, the baby's spine, ribs, head, face, everything is perfectly shaped and healthy! We have ourselves a little sweetheart.
As for the long awaited sex of the baby, the ultrasound was not 100% clear and affirmative for one sex or the other. However, due to lack of certai male parts between some clear femurs, the doctors said they were 75-80% sure we had a girl. A clearer and more advanced ultrasound will be performed when I am 21 weeks on April 16th. YAY!
Kristin, Brian, and I then attended the Augusta Arena football opener game and what a blast we have! What a blessing to have a family like ours! I love you all dearly!
To Matthew, I love you more than anything.
